MEMS & NEMS Devices

MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) is a miniaturized device that contain components of minute dimensions (on the order of micometers) that work as a system. NEMS (Nano Electro Mechanical Systems) is similar but its range is a nanometer. Usually a system consists of one or more sensors, actuators, and control electronics on a chip.

MEMS devices are energy transducers. They take mechanical or chemical energy and transform it into electrical energy. Some common applications include accelerometers, pressure sensor, gyroscopes, flow sensor, magnetometer and microphones well used in mobile phones, automotive applications and many more. MEMS devise are also used displacement transducer such as switches and scanners for electric and optical signals.

Keysight can help you to establish more accurate device modeling, more efficient failure analysis, and better process by the solutions. Performing on-wafer impedance measurements at the earliest stages in the manufacturing process can be very effective for lowering the production cost of MEMS devices. You can quickly verify performance without physical stimulus to accelerate time to market for mass production.
